Ecologists, evolutionary biologists, and other life scientists are often interested in how species vary across taxonomy, space and time. Museum specimens are a valuable and often untapped resource in investigating such questions. This poster demonstrates how museum specimens can be used to answer questions of ecology, taxonomy, and reproductive biology. A poster deriving from STRIDE and Special Studies programs, with Virginia Hayssen, Mary Maples Dunn Professor of Biological Sciences.
